Given:

Rate of shooting a basket = 75%

Find how many attempts  did she make if she made 9 baskets.

Solution:

Convert 75% into decimal by dividing it with 100, hence in converting a decimal into a fraction, multiply it by 100.

= 75%/100

= 0.75

Divide 9 by 0.75 in order to determine how many attempts did Emily made.

= 9 / 0.75

= 12

Emily made 12 attempts in total.
